Talent Programs

A tailored solution to the IT skills shortage is available to you with our talent programs. In just a few months, we transform talented individuals into highly qualified specialists that benefit your business. Our end-to-end programs serve to identify, assess, train, coach, mentor and certify staff. If necessary, we can even find replacements for candidates. This ensures your investment yields precisely the certified, highly qualified experts you are seeking.

The Solution to the

Skills Shortage

Recruitment • Qualification • Certification

"The idea behind Fast Lane’s Data Center Talent Program had us convinced right from the start. We were able to steadily develop the solutioneering skills we need for customer projects such as operating data centers and setting up private cloud infrastructures. Fast Lane provided the full package encompassing recruitment, training and comprehensive certifications, and even guaranteed it! We hired two new employees via this qualification initiative. Both achieved best scores to earn 13 different Cisco, NetApp and VMware certifications during this six-month program."

Sven Heinsen, Director Solutions & Professional Services, Dimension Data Germany AG & Co. KG

Depending on the previous knowledge of the participants the program duration can also be reduced. Further information is available at www.flane.co.cr/talentprograms

Your Benefits

The cost advantage that comes with hiring trainees

Trainees draw significantly lower starting salaries than a newly recruited, seasoned IT specialist. The costs of the program are amortized within about a year. After a few months training, your well-trained personnel are ready and able to be deployed to serve customers in complex IT projects.

The price advantage that comes with an end-to-end program

Our talent programs spare you between 40 and 50 percent of the cumulative cost of discrete services (recruitment, multi-month training program, certifications).

Rest assured, your new employees will be well-prepared for the future challenges of your business by the time they complete the program. Participants will earn the targeted certifications, and we will even guarantee this to you. The insights gained by our coaches during the assessment course give us a very clear picture of a trainee‘s ability to quickly become What‘s more, experience has taught us that recent talent

graduates‘ commitment to their employers runs very deep.
